New to baseball?

And BTW, I checked the box score from last night's game. LA scored one run in the 4th, Chicago scored 3 in the 7th. So what part of "choked away a late game lead" isn't accurate?

I must admit, I clicked on Monday's game when the Cubs jumped to the 2-0 lead and won 3-1. My bad.

As far as choke goes...do not see it. Losing a 1-0 lead in the 9nth sucks. Saito blew the save. Does it amount to CHOKE??? Hell no! That game was up for grabs the entire night. A 1-0 is about as precarious as they come.

Got no problem with you hating the Dodgers. Just found it kinda funny the way you attempted to describe the series. It was actually some pretty damn good ball. Yes, the Dodgers did get swept. Such is baseball.

So in your opinion every time a team has a 1 run lead and lose the lead it is a choke? One run leads are lost every day in baseball...that is the way the game is.
